      My step-grandfather took a dislike to a cat (mind you, this was in the late 1930s) on his farm. He tried dropping it off in town-it was back the nest day. Other farms-nope, it came back.
      One day he had business in a town 100 miles away. He dropped the cat at the bank in that town.
      A week later, he gave up. Got up to find the cat sleeping in the rocker on the front porch.
